This morning: a conflict situation developed; then quiet "ao" by one of the birds.15/VIII - same place, clear - Note: the first flush of light occurs ~ 5:35-5:40 AM. The bird behavior was ~ same as in past days, with one bird giving "aos" and some bother calls (apparently a real or imagined mild conflict).13/XII/69 - @ km 24.5 @ dawn a bird gave some "ao" calls, then took off in flight giving a flight scream (couldn't see whether planing or flipping) and then performed a wing-drumming display in the same flight; therefore, it was well out from pack before beginning the display.
